Unable to send autoinventory platform data to server, waiting for xx seconds before retrying.

Hi guys. 

I just installed vRops 8.3 and everything is fine. 

Then, i download Endpoint Operations 8.2 for Windows and install agent in a Windows Server 2016. 

 

Endpoint configuration file 

 

agent.setup.serverIP=vRops 8.3 ip
agent.setup.serverSSLPort=443
agent.setup.serverLogin=admin
agent.setup.serverPword=xxxxxxx (vRops admin password)
agent.setup.serverCertificateThumbprint= finger print from vrops admin interface (i try both finger prints). 

 

Then i started Endpoint Agent Service in Windows client machine and :

Hi,

Keep in mind the end point operations agent is deprecated after this release:

Product Support Notices

  • End Point Operations Management Solution
    The End Point Operations Management Solution has been deprecated with this release and will be unavailable for use after vRealize Operations 8.3.

https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Operations-Manager/8.3/rn/vRealize-Operations-Manager-83.html

 

The new way forward is with an open source agent called Telegraf:
